"What? If you’re scared, then just admit defeat.

If you concede, I’ll stop pursuing this matter, and you’ll also be able to keep one of your arms intact. Isn’t that a very worthwhile deal?

You just need to say two simple words, admit defeat, and it will be over.

Otherwise, why are you being so hesitant? Do you not have the courage of a man?"

Lin Yi’s mocking words instantly made the guy’s face turn beet red. He gritted his teeth and slammed his hand onto the table.

This is Five Lords’ typical rash behavior; they cannot resist provocation. Even though they know it’s a provocation, they still charge head-on without hesitation.

And after slamming his hand down, the guy’s heart almost leaped into his throat.

The nervousness in his heart instantly turned his face pale.

It’s undeniable that this game is extremely thrilling. It might not seem terrifying when described, but as participants, they truly know how much it tests one’s mental resilience. If their mental strength wasn’t robust, this guy would have been defeated long ago.

"Haha, hahaha, I didn’t hit it, this time I didn’t hit it again, let’s see how arrogant you can be now. If you have the guts, keep going. Show me your courage, you..."

Before he could finish speaking, there was another bang as Lin Yi once again slapped a paper bag onto the table.

This time, it truly stunned the guy.

Originally wanting to sneer at Lin Yi, he didn’t expect Lin Yi’s hand speed to be so fast, ending it before he could finish speaking, and this time, the problem was tossed back to him, with the luck on his shoulders.

Looking at the five remaining paper bags, he didn’t know how to describe his feelings.

The words he had half-said came to a halt, just staring blankly at Lin Yi. 𝕗𝚛𝚎𝚎𝐰𝗲𝗯𝗻𝚘𝚟𝚎𝗹.𝕔𝐨𝕞

He really couldn’t understand Lin Yi’s thought process; doesn’t he feel any fear?

Isn’t he afraid of the blade piercing through his hand?

In short, he couldn’t comprehend Lin Yi’s emotions, and inwardly he started to admire Lin Yi. Such mental resilience is certainly not something someone like him possesses.

Even the old General shared this sentiment; at this moment, a hint of approval could be seen in his eyes when looking at Lin Yi. Such courageous young people are truly rare; such a person will surely accomplish extraordinary feats in the future.

After slapping down the bag, Lin Yi shrugged at the opponent, indicating in a very casual tone:

"Alright, I’ve finished slapping. Now it’s your turn. If you’re a real man, don’t let me see you hesitate."

Does Lin Yi not know where the knife is?

The answer is no, he definitely knows.

At this moment, that knife is in his System Space.

Indeed, he really doesn’t know which bag the old man placed the knife in.

However, he can use his mind to store the knife in the System Space, which means he can store it and then when he wants, bring it out.

So, currently, none of the five remaining paper bags contain the knife.

And because of this, Lin Yi acts recklessly and so relaxed.

If there was actual gambling involved, Lin Yi would absolutely not take such a light-hearted approach nor would he joke about his own safety.

As Lin Yi’s words fell, everyone in the room was worried for the guy betting against Lin Yi.

Among the five remaining bags, the solitary one is supposedly where the knife is kept.

Of course, this is what the old man and his team believe.

After all, they saw it with their own eyes.

Now, they fear that the hot-headed guy will choose that solitary bag to slap down, resulting in his hand being absolutely crippled.

The guy betting against Lin Yi seems to have gained some courage.

Probably because of Lin Yi’s provocation.

Facing Lin Yi’s taunting, his mind has heated up, losing the ability to think rationally.

All he wants is to beat Lin Yi, proving himself not the coward.

Thus, he raised his hand directly and went to smack the lone bag.

That moment, immediately everyone’s heart leapt to their throat, even the old General couldn’t help but slap his forehead, inwardly lamenting it was over.

Perhaps the slapping sound was shockingly loud.

Causing the guy about to slap the lone bag to hear it, resulting in an air twist where he redirected his hand to the side and slapped another bag instead.

When that slap fell, the bag was instantly flattened, causing the guy to fall flat on the ground.

Breathing heavily from his mouth.

If he hadn’t heard the General’s forehead slapping sound, he would have undoubtedly slapped it without care.

Judging by the expressions of these people around him, the bag ought to have contained the knife.

This also caught Lin Yi’s attention. Watching their reactions, Lin Yi couldn’t help but curl his lips slightly, realizing where the knife had been initially placed, evidently in the lone paper bag.

Thinking this, he smiled playfully; perhaps this will be even more interesting.

Hence, without waiting for the opponent to react, he stepped forward, and with a bang, slapped a different bag beside him. Of course, this bag wasn’t the one containing the knife.

Now both parties know the knife’s location, making the slapping pressure-free.

After Lin Yi slapped, there were only three bags left on the table.

The distribution of these bags is one solitary, and two connected.

According to the old man’s reaction, the solitary, independent one is where the knife is.

And now it came down to,
